What is Schoolwide Positive Behavior?
SWBPS is a team-based proactive systems approach for creating and maintaining safe and effective learning environments evidenced by positive social cultures and behavioral supports for all students. The focus of SWPBS is schools developing ,implementing, evaluating, and sustaining a three-tier model of teaching and prevention that includes primary preventions, secondary preventions, and tertiary interventions. Critical elements of SWPBS include (a) achievement of valued and desired outcomes, (b) adoption and sustained use of research-validated practices and curricula that maximize achievement of student and teacher outcomes, (c) team-based application of data-based decision making at many levels, and (d) development of systems (e.g., processes routines, working structures, administrative supports) to sustain achievement of valued and desired outcomes.
